We randomly selected a book called “This Truck” from the library one day. It quickly became a fan favorite around here so when we returned it (late, of course), I figured I’d swing by the bookstore to pick it up. Lo and behold, it’s a tougher book to find than I had anticipated. Enter Amazon. Amazon found it used for $1.99 (which was way less than our whopping $16 library fine). J doesn’t care at all if it has the dewey decimal system and “Property of the NY library” stamped all over it. All he cares about is that he, once again, gets to say “this truck is ennoorrmous.” And “this truck has NO LOAD!” And to point to the headlights on the last page with the mack truck and ask me what they are.
Oh, and to show R the trucks but not let him actually touch the book.
